Animated series Brickleberry has been renewed for a second season by Comedy Central.  Presently in its first season, Brickleberry is averaging 1.8 million total viewers and ranks as the second-highest rated series in its time period among M18-34 and M18-24.  The second season with 13 episodes will roll out in fall 2013.  Daniel Tosh and series creators Waco O’Guin and Roger Black serve as executive producers.

Starting this evening, RLTV, the cable network and online destination targeting adults 50+, is bringing back the half-hour series, Home Again with Bob Vila to its schedule with stacked episodes at 7p and also on Saturdays at 11a to 12 noon.  The series follows home renovator Bob Vila as he visits residential and commercial construction sites and restorations from San Francisco to Miami and in New England and offers his ideas for renovating various places and spaces.

On Wednesday last week, Estrella TV aired live the 13th Annual Premios De La Radio Awards from 7p to 11p and tallied 562,000 total viewers which ranks now as the most watched program in the network’s history.  The live telecast also attracted 303,000 among A18-49 which ranks as the second highest total for the demo since the network began receiving ratings.
